FPGAs are certainly not known for their low power consumption. Especially for something like an OpenCL workload, you'd probably do much better with a vector processor architecture, like on GPUs.
- hornd 12y agoHmm? FPGAs, in most cases, consume significantly less power than GPUs, unless GPU technology has caught up in the past year or so.
- TD-Linux 12y agoThis is the opposite of my experience (assuming the same performance level). Though I consider FPGAs and GPUs mostly cut out for vastly different purposes. I unfortunately can't find a good reference to back this up because very few people do FPGA to GPU comparisons with anything more than a trivial FIR filter or FFT.
